About this show
Stand-up meets storytelling in this unflinching and darkly funny solo show from comedian Krystyna Hutchinson. Raised by a mentally ill mother and an emotionally distant father, Krystyna confronts the moment she realizes her parents weren't the heroes she imagined them to be. Blending sharp comedy with raw honesty, the show explores childhood trauma, going no-contact, and the complicated freedom that follows. Featuring audio from a real psychic medium reading, this is a bold, cathartic voyage through grief, anger and radical self-reclamation.
